LoL – EMEA Masters Day 4: NORD, CGN, Barça, and Misa secure their spots in the EMEA Masters Playoffs

On the penultimate day of the EMEA Masters Spring group stage, Groups D, C, F, and G delivered four new Playoffs teams: NORD, CGN, Barça, and Misa — and four eliminations: GMBLERS, mCon, Axolotl, and Team Phantasma. The NLC and Prime League lock in at least one team each, while the TCL and SuperLiga secure their second after BoostGate and GIANTX Pride qualified the day before.

All Bo3s on Day 3 of the EMEA Masters ended in clean 2-0s, with little resistance across the board. In Group C, NORD Esports (#2 NLC) took down Geekay (#1 AL) to qualify, while ZenniT (#1 ROL) stayed alive by eliminating GMBLERS (#3 LIT). Group D saw Muhammed "Agurin" Kocak and CGN (#1 PRM) qualify after beating eSuba (#2 HM), as FlameHard (#1 LPLOL) gave themselves some breathing room by eliminating mCon Esports (#2 ROL).

In Group F, Barça (#1 SL) secured qualification by defeating the reigning champions Los Ratones (#1 NLC), and Kaufland Hangry Knights (#3 PL) knocked out Axolotl (#2 LIT). Finally, in Group G, Misa Esports (#2 TCL) overcame Tunisia’s GnG Amazigh (#3 AL), and Zero Tenacity (#1 RL) eliminated last edition’s semifinalists, Team Phantasma (#1 HLL).

The final day of the EMEA Masters group stage takes place on Monday, June 9, with one elimination and qualification Bo3 in each group. Fog Esports (#2 AL) will face ULF Esports (#3 TCL), while Gentle Mates (#3 LFL) take on Gamespace Mediterranean College Esports (#2 HLL) in Group B. In Group C, Geekay will have to take down ZenniT to stay alive, and Group D will feature a rematch between eSuba and FlameHard.

Berlin International Gaming (#2 PL) will try to beat Los Heretics (#3 SL) once again, while Los Ratones are clear favorites against KHK, whom they already defeated in the opening round. GnG Amazigh will go up against Zero Tenacity, and Partizan Sangal (#2 EBL) will need to get past StormMedia FMS (#2 RL) to book their spot in the Playoffs.
